Clicking on the track number column orders by artist, album, track so you have:
1 - artist a - album 1
2 - artist a - album 1
...
1 - artist a - album 2
...
1 - artist b - album 1
...

The same thing happened to me and it seems that filling the "track count" metadata with the correct value corrected the problem (at least it did here).

I attach a screenshot showing the track number ordering not functioning properly (the little "V" arrow indicates that it's supposed to be sorted in descending order on the track number when it's obviously not)

Confirmed, and thanks Chardon for posting the workaround; I'm mentioning that upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=432034.

In case somebody else lands here, also to mention that for proper ordering (workaround #3) you need not only to fill in the correct 'track count' but also to fill in the correct disc number and sync across all songs, possibly even resync the artist and album fields.

Possibly desired functionality but nevertheless it should be better documented and communicated via ui.
